Chapter 104: Archer Cavalry
"I'm a cultivator, the path of cultivation is filled with cruel killings. If you follow me, you'll no longer have an ordinary person's life. You might regret it one day, so be mentally prepared. But if you really want to follow me, as long as I have food to eat, you'll have food too." Guo Fei said in a low voice.
"Hmm, I know! I don't regret it." Liang Tie revealed a firm gaze.
"Alright, relax your body and see if you can accept my inheritance. I'll grant you the power to rapidly improve your cultivation!" Guo Fei patted Liang Tie's back, discovering that his body was incredibly robust, even stronger than when he first received the sword energy, so it should be able to withstand the energy entering his body.
Guo Fei's divine consciousness entered the space of the military symbol, where there were sword infantry, axe cavalry, and bow cavalry that suited him. However, their auras were extremely weak. The bow cavalry emitted light when combined with the Double-Headed Jiao. Guo Fei thought for a moment and infused the energy of the bow-shaped virtual shadow into Liang Tie's body. After all, his feelings for the Double-Headed Jiao ran deep, and this combination could bind it together, greatly increasing its combat strength.
Liang Tie's face showed a look of pain, but the pain quickly disappeared, and then his face showed a look of wild joy. He was not good with words, he just stared at Guo Fei with a silly smile.
"Tiě zǐ, you have accepted my legacy, from now on you will be my attendant. Although we met by chance, I trust you and gave you this opportunity. I saw that you used to use a bow and arrow, so I let you continue using it, this way you can exert your combat power. When the time comes, I will forge a good bow for you. For now, you can only use this set of bow and arrow." Guō Fēi handed over the bow and two tubes of iron arrows he had previously seized to Liáng Tiě's hands.
Liang Tie had been hunting since he was a child, and his archery skills were far superior to those of ordinary people. He naturally understood the quality of bows and arrows. When he saw the bow and arrow handed over by Guo Fei, his eyes lit up instantly. This was no ordinary bow and arrow, it was a hundred times stronger than the ones he had used before.
"Big brother, I won't say anything nice, you avenged our village people, from now on I, Liang Tie, will follow you, even if it's to knife mountain and fire sea, I won't frown." Liang Tie said in a deep voice.
"Hmm! We'll conquer the world together." Guo Fei smiled, then handed over the "Sword Scripture" from his own space to Liang Tie, letting him study and cultivate the Basic Qi Refining Technique to improve his cultivation.
Then, Guo Fei called out Hu Xiaoyue to meet them. After all, they would be working together in the future and were his own team members. Hu Xiaoyue was a warm and enthusiastic person who immediately began introducing herself to Liang Tie and teaching him how to recognize characters. This made Guo Fei feel embarrassed as he had not realized that Liang Tie was actually illiterate.
Liang Tie felt a bit constrained and shy in front of this exceptionally beautiful older sister, but Hu Xiaoyue's enthusiasm soon dispelled his constraint and even dispelled his sad mood, making the whole team harmonious and joyful.
The heavy snow still didn't stop, and it seemed to be getting heavier. Guo Fei led the entire team forward. As the team expanded, Guo Fei finally had some free time, and daily life became more organized under Hu Xiaoyue's arrangement, allowing him to live a comfortable life without having to lift a finger.
Guo Fei took the time to study the "Jin Dao Lung Jing", although he still hasn't determined its properties and can't cultivate it, but through his research on the "Jin Dao Lung Jing", Guo Fei gained a deeper understanding of the source boundary, benefiting greatly.
Liang Tie joined the team and began his arduous training. He had a good understanding of archery, having followed his father on hunting trips for many years. His father would charge forward with a long spear, while Liang Tie would provide supporting attacks with his bow and arrow. His archery skills were already quite deep among ordinary people. After the virtual shadow of the bow entered his body, he gained a sense of the instrument, which allowed him to make rapid progress. Along the way, most of the low-level wild beasts were left for him to eliminate, and as a result, he was promoted to level two archer in just half a month.
After the energy of the archer was injected into his body, it also flowed into the body of the double-headed crocodile. They were originally one entity, with one being the archer and the other being the mount. The double-headed crocodile, which had recovered in the soldier's symbol space after becoming a second-level mount for the archer, suddenly healed from its injuries. Its cultivation, which had been stagnant for many years, began to loosen up and grow again, leaving it overjoyed.
"It's all thanks to Tiezi!" Guo Fei explained briefly after the Double-Headed Crocodile appeared. At this point, there was no need to hide it anymore.
After hearing this, the Double-Headed Jiao felt a hint of sorrow in his heart. As a rare creature of heaven and earth, although he couldn't be considered a sacred beast, he was still an unusual species among jiaos. The only drawback was that his evolution was slow and growth was difficult, but if he could grow up, he would become a powerful existence comparable to the giant dragon.
Unexpectedly, it became a subordinate of Guo Fei and even a mount for Liang Tie. However, the joy of its cultivation progress soon balanced out its frustration. Moreover, Liang Tie was not an outsider, but the only kin of the small village that it had sworn to protect. Fighting alongside Liang Tie also fulfilled its wish. Furthermore, after hearing Guo Fei's introduction to the cultivation method, the Double-Headed Python thoroughly submitted itself, believing that with this energy in its body, it would eventually succeed in transforming into a powerful cultivator roaming the world.
The four claws of the double-headed turtle are retracted and not very long, but when stretched out, they can be over a meter long, and its running speed is astonishingly fast.
Liang Tie was still embarrassed to ride the Double-Headed Jiao to cultivate, after all, the people in their village respectfully called it "Beast Ancestor", and worshipped it as an ancestor. However, under the repeated requests of the Double-Headed Jiao, Liang Tie reluctantly got on and cultivated his archery skills.
After Liang Tiejun rode the Double-Headed Jiao, his archery skills gradually increased, and his archery skills were strengthened. Soon, he reached a state of harmony with the riding beast.
Twenty days later, Guo Fei led his troops to the official road in Zhengnan. He gathered all types of soldiers and entered the government post station to inquire about information. They found out that Zhao Xue's team had already passed by here and estimated to be around fifty kilometers ahead. Guo Fei was not in a hurry, slowly following them up. In areas with no people, he left more time for his corpse soldiers, dancing girls, and archer cavalry to practice.
They arrived safely in the capital, and Guo Fei lingered in a deep mountain 100 kilometers away from the capital for a month, only rushing to the Zhao State capital when it was almost time.
During this period, the six Dingliu and Jia's phantom killing array had become more sophisticated, and Hu Xiaoyue's martial skills had also made significant progress. The one who made the most progress was Liang Tie, a young man who had been hunting in the mountains since childhood, although he was shy and even a bit timid, but he was extremely resilient, could endure hardships, and had a high enthusiasm for cultivation. In addition, the Double-Headed Python's own cultivation had improved, unblocking the meridians that were blocked in its body, and its submerged heart was boiling again. It knew that cultivating to this point was not easy, so it also cultivated with all its might, and was surprisingly similar to Liang Tie.
The capital of Zhao State, known as "Mountain City", Guo Fei arrived here and only then did he understand why the people of Zhao State called it Mountain City. The entire city was almost built in the middle of a huge mountain range, adapting to the terrain, following the mountain and building along with it, which can be described as a magnificent city carved by gods.
The city gate was built on the top of a hill, and as you walked up the official road, the scene suddenly opened up before your eyes. A vast city pool was built in the middle of the mountain range, with two hills in the center of the city standing high above the ground. The houses were built along the mountainside, overlapping each other, making the entire city look misty and breathtaking, leaving people in awe.
